What are the cool news, and nice list. Personally I would prefer that there was not a "maybe" option just sure _________________Human beings are divided into mind and body. The mind embraces all the nobler aspirations, like poetry and philosophy, but the body has all the fun - Woody Allen

Hi!
I have been thinking about going to gent. Probably I will be able, but it's still a maybe. Anyways, I saw you made a "maybe" list. Can you please include my husband and I? We are trying to gather some information before a confirmation. Thanks!

I was taking a look at the flights... Do you know a low cost company which flies near Gent? Ryanair lands in Charleroi, which is more than 100 km far from the city Thank you.

I think I will go. It would be me, my cousin, and possibly her husband, depending on his work schedule. Do we pay you, Dutch, or will our seating block show up on the ordering site?

I am also looking at train schedules, and the most straightforward train from where I'm staying gets to Ghent at 16:29. Unless we drive, I guess.We'd be driving. My question is, is there going to be a dinner beforehand or a central meeting place for all of us, pre-concert? Thanks!

Gert! You have a chance to become the first USA based SST member to join official SST Gathering in Europe, I think. That's really something! Great news!

I hope to meet you, your cousin and her husband in Ghent!_________________"The piano keys

We plan to visit the city on saturday starting somewhere in the morning. Depending on if Dutchbat and I needed to do some preparations at the venue, we will go earlier to the venue. But we will have a gaythering with visiting the city and drink and eat something. So if possible try to be in Gent on saturday morning._________________That's the beauty of music.

Flight from Treviso to Bruxelles-Charleroi taken! We (me and my boyfriend) are officially coming.

We'll land in Bruxelles on Friday and plan to visit the city, and on Saturday morning to take the train to Ghent. Other people coming from Bruxelles? I wonder if we should already book the hotel in Bruxelles and Ghent, did you do that already? We could stay at the same one...

Calling Dutchbat! Calling Dutchbat!
Place Xalira place in the frame "Sure" (I think?) and say something about the booking and the organization for Gert and for us, please (If not too early)_________________Human beings are divided into mind and body.

Ok, so we'll take care just about our stay in Brussels now. Thanks!

DB, are you taking tickets only for the 47 € sector? You think we'll have some discount if we book many tickets at the same time?

OK changes are made. Tomorrow I will call the Gent office again and book best available seats for all the people who are in the sure list. These can be payed back to me at the venue or preferably by bank or paypal. I haven't checked for hotels yet, but let me know how many need an hotel room. I will start research after the tickets._________________Wow, that was fun, let's do it again!! (Donkey in "Shrek")
